Well I'm back with another card for Shelly's Images and this week's theme is to use a flower or flowers on your project (easy for all of you since the digi is already a flower). I started off using bronze metallic paper as my base which is a 5"x 7" finished card size. I used Bo Bunny collection called 'Little Miss' for the rest. I added 3 layers before cutting out a frame using the 'Lacy Tiers Die' from the Amazing Paper Graces February Kit Club that unfortunately is no longer running using copper metallic paper. I then applied double side adhesive tape to the back of the circle die and then used Hot Lips Transparent Glitter to accent the intricate die. I then printed the digital image onto acetate and onto shimmery white paper, applied double sided adhesive to acetate on the back and added Warm Highlight Glitter to the backside of the flower. I colored the glitter from the backside using my Copic Markers using the following colours YR04, YR68, R27, YG23, and G29. I then colored the other paper image using Prismacolor pencils. I placed the acetate flower on top of the paper flower using pop up dots. I then took some white flowers and colored them using Lindy's Stamp Gang Starburst sprays in the following colours; Plumeria Pink, Cape Cod Coral and Salt Water Taffy. I added a Prima Marketing brown flower to the large pink flower, added pink brad to another flower and added a pink adornment to the other flower. I cut out some flourishes using orange, pink glitter paper using Tim Holtz 'Elegant Flourishes' and Cheery Lynn die called 'Fanciful Flourish'. I also printed the sentiment onto acetate and coloured it the same way as the flower. I laid this on top of a Little Miss die cut journaling & page accents.
